By Bike

Whether you’re cycling as part of your commute or just fancy a leisurely lunchtime ride around the park, we’re here to help you get on your bike.

Cycling to work is better for you and the environment – keeping you fit and cutting air pollution and traffic congestion.

Not only is it one of the cheapest ways to get to work, it can also be one of the quickest. For example, Caversham to TVP takes around 15 minutes by bike.

Leasing a Bike

If the benefits of cycling appeal but you’re not ready to commit to a new bike, why not take advantage of one of the loan schemes that operate on site? It’s a great way to see how cycling works for you. It’s also a useful solution for regular cyclists who find themselves temporarily without a bike.

All registered TVP Travel users have access to loan bicycles through the Easit loan bike scheme. We also offer folding bikes for cycle and rail commutes. And for those easing themselves in to cycling we even offer electric bikes to help take the strain! All loan bikes are delivered to your office fully serviced and ready to go. There’s a one-off charge for loan bikes of £35 which covers delivery, collection, servicing and up to a month’s loan.

Bike Discounts

Through Easit, TVP employees can get great discounts with Halfords, Brompton Bike Hire, Beatbikes & Cyclotricity. Sign up to Easit and view ‘your discounts’ for more information.

Electric Vehicle Charging

We have Pod Point Open Charge electric vehicle charging on-site for businesses and their customers.

There are 4 x 7kW charging bays available.

Each bay has a Type 2 universal socket.

It costs £1.15 per hour to charge.

Before using the Pod Point twin, you need to download the app for iOS/Android phones or use the web app at: open.pod-point.com

Starting a charge is as simple as plugging in the car. Charging is indicated by the LEDs turning GREEN. When a vehicle is connected to the Pod Point Twin, the Type 2 socket at the pod will lock the cable into the pod. The vehicle side connector must be disconnected before the cable can be released from the Pod Point.

After the car starts charging you’ve got 15 minutes to find the charger on the app and confirm charging. When battery is full or charging has paused/ stopped for any reason, the green light will flash.

In the unlikely event that the lights go red, it means something’s gone wrong. No need to panic, just get in touch with Pod Point and they will get it sorted. Please count the red flashes, as this indicates the nature of the fault.

TVP Travel has its own dedicated car share scheme. Employees from around the park can join for free and find someone who works in the park to share with. It’s a great way to promote sustainable transport as well as cutting travel costs – commuters typically save around £1,000 a year from car sharing!
